The Northwoods of Wisconsin have always been home for Betsy. Blessed with her mother's artistic talents and clocking in many hours in the woods with her father over the years has molded Betsy's career as a nature and landscape artist.

Betsy works mainly include detailed wood sculptures and oil, though she is versatile in graphite, acrylis, and pastels. Such a variety of mediums yet all the distinct work of artist Betsy Popp.
